Welcome to the 8th IEEE International Symposium on Industrial Embedded Systems (SIES 2013). The aim of

SIES is to bring together researchers and practitioners from the industry and academia, and provide a

platform to report recent developments, deployments, technology trends and research results related to

embedded systems and their applications in various industrial environments.

SIES 2013 comes after a number of previous successful editions held in Karlsruhe (Germany 2012), Västerås

(Sweden 2011), Trento (Italy 2010), Lausanne (Switzerland 2009), La Grande Motte (France 2008), Lisbon

(Portugal 2007) and Antibes Juan-Les-Pins (France 2006). The 2013 edition is being held in Porto (Portugal),

which is a city well known for the Polytechnic Institute of Porto or IPP.

SIES 2013 will feature three keynotes – by Rolf Ernst from TU Braunschweig, Michael Paulitsch from EADS,

and Chenyang Lu from Washington University in St. Louis. In addition it will feature a number of invited

talks and peer reviewed paper presentations that have been organized into a total of 9 sessions, one of

them consisting of Work-in-Progress papers. The contributions cover various aspects of industrial

embedded systems, which range from requirement capture, design and optimization of multi-core

architecture, WSN platforms and communication networks, to methods for task scheduling and timing

analysis, as well as testing, error detection and complexity measurement.

We welcome you to Porto, with an outstanding array of attractions. These include Port Wine, the World

Heritage Historic Centre of Porto, award winning modern architecture, FC Porto, the Douro River and São

João to name but a few. The local arrangements chairs Filipe Pacheco and Vincent Nélis with the help of

Automotive Communication - From Buses to

Switched Networks

Today, automotive networks consist of a

heterogeneous system of different field buses and

gateways with new protocols and topologies in almost

every generation. The network is tailored to the set of

applications integrated in a car following different

cost, safety, and performance targets.

First required by the infotainment systems, Switched

Ethernet is about to be introduced in cars and has

become a hot candidate as backbone and integration

platform for future automotive systems.

After a short overview on the requirements leading to

this development, the talk will elaborate on the

opportunities, the limitations and fallacies behind that

development, and will pledge for a holistic approach

for the design and optimization of such networks.

EADS Innovation

Dependable and secure computing and

networks in aerospace - the past, the present

and a glimpse into the future

Embedded control systems in aircraft has been

regarded as one of the most challenging engineering

topics regarding dependability.

Pilots of modern aircraft today are fully relying on

embedded electronics to master their flight with an

extremely successful and daily improving safety

record.

Automation in the cockpit with systems like fly-by-wire

and flight management systems has been requiring

the highest levels of dependable design.

Today, automation stretches into air traffic control

and will require direct cooperation between aircraft

i.e. reaching a new level of integration. For this as well

as passenger and maintenance connectivity not only

dependability, but security aspects increases.

Some recent embedded architectures and current

architectural and system challenges will be presented.

Networks and computing need to consider

dependability and security aspects in new embedded

aircraft control architecture. New computing

approaches for consumer electronics like multicore

computing architectures are promising for reaching

new computing power levels at low power dissipation.

However, using multicore safely has been and is a

challenge in such systems. This talk will focus

presenting some aspects on this topic and highlight

some of the reservations of certification authorities on

this topic as well as describe problems of worst case

execution time analysis.

Washington University in St. Louis

Real-Time Wireless Control Networks for Cyber-

Physical Systems

Wireless control systems represent a new frontier of

cyber-physical systems. Rapid adoption of wireless

sensing and actuation networking standards has

demonstrated the feasibility of reliable wireless

communication for industrial automation. However,

wireless control networks face significant challenges in

meeting real-time communication requirements of

control systems. Furthermore, close coupling between

control and communication requires a cyber-physical

co-design approach to optimize control performance

under stringent resources constraints. This talk will

present recent advances in real-time wireless control

networks. (1) I will describe a new real-time wireless

scheduling theory that supports real-time

performance analysis for wireless control networks.

(2) I will address the scheduling-control co-design

problem of determining the optimal sampling rates of

feedback control loops sharing a wireless network. (3)

I will present Wireless Cyber-Physical Simulator

(WCPS), a holistic environment for realistic simulations

of large-scale wireless control systems, as well as two

case studies of wireless structural control for civil

infrastructure.

I will conclude my talk by highlighting future

challenges and opportunities on wireless cyber-

physical systems.

Palá io da Bolsa , the old Stock Exchange of Porto is

the location we choose for

the Reception (Tourist Map

Reference Number 13). It

was built to impress and

earn the credibility of European investors and so

we hope to impress you as well when you stroll

around establishment.

Built on the ruins of the

cloisters of the St. Francis

Convent, it houses to this

day the commercial

association of Porto and is

intimately tied to the trade

of Port Wine. The big atrium displays around the

ceiling all the countries Portugal had trading

relations with. See for yourself if you can

recognize them.

The mixture of architectural styles gives the

ensemble an interesting flair and the Arab Room

in particular intrigued many before.

We will join a guided tour through the building

and subsequently we will have finger food and

drinks.

Note: For those who want to go out for dinner

afte wa ds please o sult the agazi e ti e out also i luded i the wel o e pa k.

Meet at the Registration Desk of SIES2013 at

19:00 and we’ll make our way together to the

venue in the city centre. We will take the Metro

(using the Andante Cards provided in your SIES

bag) and disembark at São Bento Metro Station

(Tourist Map Ref: 3). From there we walk down

Rua das Flores to Palácio da Bolsa.

Sandeman Cellars in Porto

The Sandeman Porto Cellars welcome guests

from all over the world and is landmark spot for

visitors to Porto and the North of Portugal.

Located on the riverbank of Vila Nova de Gaia,

this handsome building believed to been built as

early as 1797. Sandeman took possession of this

majestic building in 1811.

The Yeatman Hotel in Porto

Member of the prestigious

Relais & Châteaux collection of

hotels and distinguished with a

Michelin Star for its restaurant

under the direction of Chef

Ricardo Costa, The Yeatman

Hotel in Porto is a unique landmark in the world

of classic luxury hotels. It blends the finest

Portuguese traditions of hospitality with a British

flair for stylish comfort. And on top of that it

enjoys breathtaking panoramic views over the

historic centre of Porto declared as World

Heritage by UNESCO.

Meet at the Registration Desk of SIES2013 at

18:00 and we’ll make our way together to the

venue. We will take the Metro (using the

Andante Cards provided in your SIES bag) and

disembark at Jardim do Morro after Ponte D. Luis

(Tourist Map Ref: 99, see also the Port Wine

Cellars detail). From there take the stairway next

the metro station down to Av. Diogo Leite. After

the Sandeman’s cellars we will continue our way

up the hill towards the Yeatman Hotel (H8,

situated in Rua do Choupelo).

Alternative Route (+15 minute walk): get out at

São Bento Metro Station and walk down Rua

Mouzinho da Silveira and cross the Luis I Bridge.

All the reference numbers

mentioned can be looked up in

the official Tourist Map you

received with the welcome pack.

Be aware that the map has both

front and a back and the number

might be on the other side.

We have also included an

Andante Card in your

welcome pack. This card is

already charged with 5 Trips

or titles as they are called. The cards are

intended to be used for the social events, but

feel free to charge the cards with more trips

according to your needs (see below). The

Andante cards can be used for all trips by Metro,

us, the old t a s a d Fu i ula (The lift dow or up from the Ribeira. Tourist Map - Lilac line

next to the Historic Wall Ref 10)

All cards must be validated

every time you get on

board, even at any change

of vehicle. If you are within

the time (at least one hour)

and zone limit it will not

deduct further trips. On

trains and underground

trains the machines for ticket validation are

situated in the stations, whereas on buses they

are placed at the entrance of the vehicle. To

validate the ticket, just touch the black circle

mark with the card. A green light or an acoustic

sound will confirm the operation and the

balance will be displayed. A red light followed by

a message on the display indicates that a

problem has occurred, and you must repeat the

operation. Now, one title has been used and is

valid for 1 hour and you can change lines and

means of transport during that time.

If you just want to check your balance or add

some titles to it, use the ticket machines

available at all the Metro stations. Here you can

also recharge or top up the cards

with additional trips. The

machines are bilingual

(Portuguese/English). We would

appreciate if you could hand us

back your card after the

conference for those who don´t need it to go to

the airport. The pre-charged Z2 tickets will carry

you to the far end of the Metro system on the

Gaia side, down to the Foz area near the sea and

over to Campanha Railway station. Going to

Matosinhos you may need a Z3 ticket. The guide

in your welcome pack has information on the

Zoning.

When using the ticket for the airport, the ticket

type needs to be changed to a Z4 ticket if you

are in the city center or a Z3 ticket if you are in

the Campus Area (as a quirk of the zone system

means you need less zones going to the airport

than coming from it). Leaving the conference

venue you need to take the Yellow Metro Line D

towards Trindade station and from there the

Purple Line E to the airport. It takes about one

hou f o I“EP’s doo step to the aggage

drop/checkin counter at the airport.

Taxis in Porto are fairly cheap by international

standards. From the Ribeira to the Conference

lo atio it’s a out -8 Euros. From the

conference location to the airport a single

journey costs 15-20 Euros (depending on time of

day) and takes about 20 minutes. If you need a

taxi, the easiest is to use the taxi stand near the

south-west corner of ISEP. You can also ask one

of the organisers to call a taxi for you, as the taxi

centrals are having difficulties dealing with

English.

When somebody mentions Porto, the first things

that spring to mind are probably Port Wine, the

charming character of the World Heritage

Historic Centre of Porto and, guess what, FC

Porto.

Port wines are unique, some of them among the

best wines ever engineered! One example of a

pe fe t wi e is the Dow’s Vi tage 00 Po t that received a rare 100-point score by Wine

Spectator in 2010.

But in what wines are concerned, Porto and

Douro Valley are also world class in table wines

(2 Douro wines are in the Wine Spectator top 25

of the 2010 ranking). Worth also to mention the

increasingly famous and unique Vinho Verde;

like no other wine in the world!

Do ’t get us w o g, we a e p oud of these i o s, but the city of Porto has much more to offer.

Porto is becoming famous for architecture,

design and modernity.

The angular Casa da Música by Rem Koolhaas

was considered one of the top 5 buildings of the

decade by The Times.

The Vodafone Headquarters by Barbosa &

Guimaraes was named the Building of the Year

in the Institutional Category by renowned Arch

Daily in 2010.

The Hotels & Restaurants award of the same

year went to Diogo Aguiar & Teresa Otto for the

temporary bar of the Architecture School in the

ity’s a ual stude t’s pa ty.

This might not be such a surprise when one

realizes that Porto is the "alma mater" of two

Pritzker Awards (considered the Nobel Prize of

Architecture): Siza Vieira (in 1992), and Souto

Moura (in 2011).

Page 13: Conference Brochure - Cister Research Centre in Realtime · PDF file · 2013-06-22Towards Implementation of Virtual-Clustered Multiprocessor Scheduling in Linux - Syed Md Jakaria

Porto has some remarkable examples of older

buildings to visit. Near the river, on the World

Heritage area of the Ribeira neighbourhood

there is the medieval São Francisco Church

featuring extraordinary lavish baroque interiors.

Moving up, Clerigos Tower has 200 challenging

steps but provides an amazing 360º view of the

old city area. The nearby Lello bookstore is open

since 1881 and besides a comprehensive book

collection offers impressive Art Nouveau

decoration with Gothic Revival features including

wood panels, stain glass and a notable swirling

stair. No wonder it is considered as one of the

most amazing bookstores in the world by The

Guardian in 2008.

Porto is famous by its Cafés, including Guarany,

Confeitaria do Bolhão, Majestic and so many

others. Notably, Café Majestic is considered

among the top 10 most beautiful cafés in the

world.

Porto is famous for the Douro River, but a big

share of Porto is on the sea side.

The elegant Foz area includes beautiful seaside

walkways, promenades and bicycle tracks

stretching for various kilometres, plentiful of

beach esplanades and fancy restaurants.

The area also features one of the most beautiful

city parks in the world, Parque da Cidade, the

ity’s la gest g ee a ea, with a t a uil set of

lakes, trees, grass and foot paths connecting the

city to the actual beach in the Atlantic Ocean.

The nearby Serralves House, and its copious

gardens, is an Art Déco extravaganza that is not

to be missed.

The Contemporary Art Museum (by Siza Vieira)

shares the same property and includes the latest

in art from all over the world.

For finding restaurants, night clubs, bars and

more we suggest to consult the Time Out Porto

for Visitors Magazine which you received in your

welcome pack.
